核心要点
The Hidden Cost of Your Winter Tomato
Imagine driving on a Florida highway when suddenly a truck spills its cargo-dozens of green tomatoes bounce across the asphalt completely intact, like rubber balls rather than fruit. This wasn't a freak accident but a revelation: modern tomatoes are industrial products engineered for shipping, not eating. Americans spend $5 billion annually on these tasteless fruits while the workers harvesting them endure what one U.S. Attorney called "ground zero for modern-day slavery." Florida's tomato industry represents everything wrong with our food system-prioritizing appearance over flavor, profits over people, and convenience over conscience. The journey from field to plate connects profound questions about labor justice, environmental sustainability, and what we truly value in our food.
